background the optimal management of hemodynamically stable asymptomatic patients with anterior abdominal stab wounds (aasws) remains controversial. the goal is to identify and treat injuries in a safe cost-effective manner. common evaluation strategies are local wound exploration (lwe), diagnostic peritoneal lavage (dpl), serial clinical assessment (scas) and computed tomography (ct) imaging. ...

Enrollment in the Term Breech Trial was stopped on April 21, 2000 with 2088 enrollments out of the proposed trial of 2800. The Data Safety Monitoring Committee reported “the results were clearly in favour of planned Caesarian section”.[1] When data was excluded from analysis for those women who had prolonged labour, induction/ augmentation of labour with oxytocin/prostaglandins, epidural anaest...

Background: Abnormal umbilical cord pH can be indicated a distress imposed of newborn and can also be useful in determining the prognosis of the newborn. There are different views about the effect of the neonatal delivery method on the blood gas analysis of the umbilical artery. This study aimed to determine the effect of the method of delivery on umbilical artery pH. Methods: In this Cross ...

information and communication technology (ict) has transformed how we live our lives and the way we interact in different contexts. benefits of ict and its upcoming efficiencies (i.e. energy efficiency) are becoming the heart of many public services’ reforms which have influenced the time, distance and space concepts. at present, not only there is a lack of clarity about what high-quality ictba...

INTRODUCTION Perimortem cesarean section is a rare, time-critical, and potentially life-saving procedure for both the fetus and mother. This makes perimortem cesarean section an ideal and recommended subject for simulation learning and practice. METHODS Various attempts have been made to produce models to simulate emergency caesarian sections. We designed a cost-effective and easy to assemble...

We are witnessing a large increase of Wireless Sensor Network (WSN) deployments, used to sense, monitor and act on the environment, because cable-free solutions are easier to deploy. However, in industrial applications, WSNs still aren’t seen as a viable option because of the required fast sampling rates and the reduced time delay, particularly in a multi-hop deployment where traffic congestion...
